Is there a way to print PDF files from AIX using a command from UniData?

Ghostscript?

One of our vendors has provided a PDF file that they want us to include
with shipments of their product.  It would be nice if I could have my
existing process determine that a qualifying product is being shipped, and
automatically print a copy of the PDF, rather than having to keep a stack
on hand.  Our shipping departments use terminals, and personnel do not
always have PC access.

I'd just create a printer driver that expects a pdf file (that is, if there isn't one configured already), and execute a "shell to AIX" command.

And there are some modern printers that'll print pdf as just another alternative to eg PCL or postscript now, too...

Cheers,
Wol
